Joseph Stalin · Full chronicle and history

On the day Stalin died, spy chief Beria began a power grab, bringing the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Defense under his own control, and then pushed for a mass release of prisoners.

After Stalin's death, Mao Zedong felt the restraints on him loosen, began to develop an illusion of self-reliance, and looked down on Khrushchev.

Before the CCP came to power, Mao Zedong specifically consulted Stalin, and ultimately decided to set the capital in Beijing.

Stalin sent two urgent telegrams, warning that the CCP starting a civil war immediately after the end of the Anti-Japanese War would be national self-destruction.

Under Stalin's heavy pressure, Mao Zedong was forced to go to Chongqing to negotiate with the Kuomintang.

When Stalin compiled the textbook Materialist Dialectics, he deleted the dialectical principle of "negation of the negation," and Mao Zedong subsequently followed this treatment when compiling the definitive version.

In 1937, the distinguished Soviet Red Army Marshal Tukhachevsky was accused of colluding with Nazi Germany to overthrow Stalin and was executed, becoming a classic historical event of Stalin using charges of treason to purge prestigious generals.

The Soviet Union specifically published a Russian-language collection of Mao Zedong’s works and wrote a short biography for him, showing that he was under special protection and political packaging by Stalin.
